Thomasville Left Out.
Capt. Triplett:—On my way
north a few days ago, I heard a con
versation between a Pullman car con
ductor and a passenger. The passen
ger asked the official why it was that
be paid for the Pullman to Thomas
ville and only got it ns far as Way-
cross. The official said that he could
not tell why a car was filled at New
York for Thomasville every day and
it was used for Florida after reaching
Waycross; that the management had
threatened to discontinue the car un
less they carried it to its destination,
hut still it went to Florida. He
further stated that a few days ago at
least half of the passengers who were
going to Thomasville decided to keep
the car to Florida, and give up their
trip to Thomasville. Mr. Editor,why
this discrimination against our life-
giving, life-preserving climate.
Yoms, B,
| It was Mr. Johu T. Miller, and not
Mr. Win. J. Miller, who was thrown
from his horse uud had liis arm bro
ken, oil Wednesday afternoon. \\ e
broke the wrong man’s arm in the
notice which appeared yesterday.
The evidence in the ease of the
State vs. Cone, charged with killing

The argument will begin this morn

ably two speeches will be made on
etch side.
The college boys improvised a hare
and hounds chase yesterday afternoon
Lucius Taylor, Tom Houston and
Lester Ainsworth were the hares. A
pack of boys followed them, after
giving them ten minutes tho staTi.
The result of the chase lias not been
reported; but it is fair to assume that
some tall running took place.
An attempt was made on Thursday
uight to set fire to the South Georgia
College. The attempt was made
about 9 o’clock. A gentleman pass
ing saw the fire and gave the alarm.
when one of the school boys ran over
and put out the fire. It was a das
tardly attempt to burn a public build
ing. There is an utterahseuce of any
motive for the crime.
Among the many pleasant parties
that went to the sugar boilings Thurs
day evening was one that went to the
hospitable homeofMr. Frank J. Winn.
All who have ever been entertained
at this grand old ante helium house
know just how the guests were enter
tained. The pleasant face of Mrs.
Winn was ihissed, she being in town,
but Mr. Winn did the honors of host
to perfection. He not only filled the
guests with cane juice and beer, hut
filled several bottles to be carried
home. The ride to and from there
was very much enjoyed, the night
being perfect. Amid songs and
laughter the party arrived home about
10:30. The party consisted of Mrs.
Hopkins, Mr. and Mrs. Mallard, Mr.
and Mrs. Elias, Mr. and Mrs. C. N.
Graves and Mr. I. Levy.
We Give it up.
We should like to be able to nnswer
our correspondent, “B,” as to why
Thomasville, with all of its advan
tages. with its magnificent hotels and
ciowds of tourists coming here—or
who would come here if they had
equal opportunities for doing so—we
should be glad to solve the problem,
why we are thus placed at the great
disadvantage which he points out,
but wc give it up. We have so often
called attention to this matte, and
plead with the powers that be that it
would he useless to go over the same
e.rgumenis again. We are simply
powerless, and will have io accept (he
few crumbs which fall Bom the table,
while other poio », points not more
nti, active and not any hotter patro
nised, arc accorded facilities which
arc persistently denied us. Let
hope that this state of things will not
last always.
Since the above was in type, we
have teen Captain Fleming, General
Superintendent of the S. F. & AV.
Ry. He assures us that a train will he
put on to remedy the AVnycross con-
ncr.tio.i by the first of January; and
that, if possible, he will have it put
on at an earlier date. Captain Flem
ing lias always been the fast friend of
Thomasville, and we feel sure that lie
will do everything in his power to
remedy the wrong being done our
town.
